Research status and prospect of the nondestructive detection of eggs quality

In recent years, non- destructive detection of eggs quality had been studied by many scholars domestically and internationally. Among them,the detection of egg shell strength,cracked eggs and egg freshness were hot research topics,but the quick and nondestructive detection of tiny cracks appearance of eggs,scattered eggs and double-yolked eggs were difficult topics. This review discussed the technology of machine vision,spectrum detection technology,acoustic technology,electronic nose technology and weighing- ranging method of nondestructive testing methods,following by analysis of progress for egg quality,egg shell strength,cracks appearance of eggs and egg freshness,and prospecting the development trend of nondestructive testing of egg quality to provide a reference for further studying nondestructive testing of egg quality.
